The mirroring setup is finished. There's a master server now handling dovecot.org and a mirror server handling www/hg/wiki. Would be nice to get another reliable fast mirror server if someone wants to donate one :) Requirements are: - Apache2 with WSGI - Mercurial - Patched moinmoin - ssh + rsync so I can push changes immediately I have a script that builds all of those on a freshly installed CentOS 5.6 (and a kickstart config to do the install too). > * hg.dovecot.org can be mirrored either with hg itself pushing changes > or calling rsync hg commit hook calls rsync immediately > * www.dovecot.org can be mirrored with periodic rsync.

When a new mail arrives via mailman, it gets rsynced to mirrors within 5 minutes. This is done by rsyncing the current month's all files/dirs. > * wiki*.dovecot.org could also be rsynced and set read-only.

Also there's a nightly script that rsyncs everything just in case (except in case of mailing list archives only current+last month, since they're so huge). BTW. Apparently there's still something wrong with dovecot.org's reverse DNS record. It appears to be ok, but some DNS servers have cached it wrong. I don't know why. We've complained to the ISP. Also dovecot.org is currently sharing IP with some other stuff, but should get its own IP some day.
